LETTER HOME: ALLOW ME TO NARRATE MY TRAVELS THIS WEEK THROUGH A SELECTION OF FINE PHOTOGRAPHY

Dear Friends and Family,

It’s been a week of big transits. I left Horizon Peru, my host for the month of March, on Wednesday. And as the bus pulled out of Trujillo, I had tears in my eyes. This was an important measure of the meaningfulness of my four-week experience. Sitting on that bus, there were realizations of gratitude and injustice and freedom and privilege. But this letter home is not going to dissect the complexities of social and economic inequity.You have to wait for my memoir for that.

Instead, allow me to share my transitions from Trujillo to Buenos Aires through these captivating narrated photographs.

Much love, Daniel

    You may be interested to know that the “barren but beautiful” photo is now my desktop background. Your blog reminds me how grateful I should be for the amazing things I’m experiencing and places I’m seeing. Thank you for that. :)

    So happy I found this through Kirsten! Loooooved this!!! It was SO original and of course I’m just a bit biased because you’re in my favorite part of the world. :)

    The pictures of Lima surprised me… I wasn’t expecting it to be so colourful and appealing. The bridge of sighs looks so picturesque (sigh!). But I’m left wondering how the bike tour navigated Peruvian traffic?

    What a kick! I so enjoyed your text & photo combinations… Fuel for the imagination, for sure. We’re arriving in Peru in January, and I’m looking forward to collecting some stories of our own.

    Sucks about the iPod. :(

    Curious about Mary Ann’s travel insurance note – we haven’t purchased ours yet. I wonder what the deductible/rate details would be…

    Thanks for the peek into your world! Cheers~
